Note: So far, I think this is a real happy song from Coldplay ever
since they started. Enjoy! I have a strong feeling that both
acoustic & electric guitars is not Standard Tuning or maybe only
the acoustic guitar. But anyway if you think it is other tunings
then do so & change the chords notation given below. So that it
will sound almost the same.
Standard Tuning: EADGbe
Chords Used:
CmajFmajGmajA7
e| 0 1 3 0
b| 1 1 3 2
G| 0 2 0 0
D| 2 3 0 2
A| 3 3 2 0
E| 0 1 3 X
Note: Verse 1 & Verse 2 don't really have lots of guitaring but anyway
here is the chords.
Verse 1:
CmajFmaj
I'm a rollin' stone all alone and lost,
GmajA7
For a life of sin I have paid the cost,
FmajGmaj
As I walk by all the people say,
A7FmajCmaj
Just another guy on the lost highway,
Verse 2:
CmajFmaj
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine,
GmajA7
And a woman's life makes a life like mine,
FmajGmaj
On the day we met, I went astray,
A7FmajCmaj
I started going down that lost highway,
Note: You just got to listen to the song to understand this part. This
is a acoustic part done by Chris while Jonny is on the electric
in the 3rd & 4th verse. For those who don't know, p is pull off
or drag to another barr in 1 strike, h is hammer or hit your
finger on 1 barr with 1 finger on the lower barr in 1 strike, r
is release your finger on a higher barr with another finger on
the lower barr in 1 strike. So below you'll see that I've mixed
in both plucking & struming into a tab chart.

Note: Here the music gets hotter. So just play it on all the way.
Verse 3:
CmajFmaj
I was just a lad, only twenty two,
GmajA7
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you,
FmajGmaj
On the day we met, it's too late to pray,
A7FmajCmaj
I started going down that lost highway,
Verse 4:
CmajFmaj
Now boys don't start to ramblin' round,
GmajA7
On this road of sin are you sorrow bound,
FmajGmaj
Take my advice or you'll curse the day,
A7FmajCmaj
You started rollin' down that lost highway,
A7FmajCmaj
You started goin' down that lost highway,
A7FmajCmaj
Goin' down that lost highway,
A7FmajCmaj
Goin' down that lost highway,
Note: I guess everything is not lost here, maybe for the instrumental
part I might miss some stuff there cause I can't trace every
single thing that Chris do. So enjoy the song!
